My electric yellow cichlids produced egg over 4 weeks ago. Moms was moved to her own tank as soon as we noticed her mouth distended and even could peek at the eggs occasionally. We expected hatching June 10-13 as they'd only just been moved to a new tank and bred fast so we know almost to the day when it could have happened. Mom still appears to have eggs in mouth and won't eat. This is there second hatching. I'm so scared she will die having been so long without eating and still mothering eggs that don't hatch.
Sorry if this is disjointed but I'm very worried and no one I've asked has given any suggestions at all.
Thanks for any advice or help you might provided!
From a worried fish Mom!
